I found a couple of places where a few cycles could be shaved. The
current version of the patch (attached) seems indistinguishable in
speed from 8.4 on my HPPA box, though still a percent or two slower on
my x86_64 box.
This is ready to go except for changing the minimum flex version test
in configure (and associated documentation). I see that a good-sized
fraction of the buildfarm is still on flex 2.5.4 and will therefore go
red when this goes in. Should I hold off a bit longer, or is committing
the best way to get their attention?
